How many RBs do we need again?

Maybe Bell really is gonna be a one and done and maybe MW doesn't make it. Who knows, but welcome aboard young man!
It sounds like an unexpected commitment that even caught the Nebraska coaches by surprise although the staff had been pursuing him hard. Guess you just don't turn down someone like that.

I'm not worried that we'll have too many RBs. Remember two of the guys are seniors this fall, Tre's comeback is still an unknown (seemingly healthy but how durable will he be when the season actually gets underway?) and Washington's qualification status is touch and go.

And this kid (if he actually stays committed through signing day) also could play multiple positions if need be. The challenge though will be to fend off the $EC bagmen with all the cash at their disposal throughout the season. They'll be coming at him with all their inducements for sure if he has a great senior season.

This kid sounds like an ideal fit for Frost's offense. Good speed, good vision and elusive. He probably should move up the rankings this year. One thing that's nice about recruiting in Georgia is that Georgia and Alabama are recruiting at such a supper high level with RB's right now that there's a real opportunity to recruit a great running back out of Georgia. I'll gladly take a high potential 3 star out of Georgia any time.


Under rated post is under rated.

Having two Grayson alumni on the Nebraska roster — Breon Dixon and Mohamed Barry — helped the Huskers’ case.


“That was huge, because he’s really close with both of those guys,” Watson said.

Thompkins made this decision without seeing the campus. He will make his first visit to Nebraska next weekend for the second Friday Night Lights camp of the summer.

Watson said things started heating up between Nebraska and Thompkins about a month ago. Watson traveled to Nebraska two years ago and loved it. The Huskers have a very positive image inside Grayson’s walls.

Just so you know, Kenyatta Watson is not a coach at Grayson, at one time he was a volunteer coach there and was sent away because of complaints by other high school coaches of him recruiting their best players to Grayson and the GHSA to to snooping around. He is basically a street agent and mouth piece of kids now. That doesn't take anything away from any of the kids, but he isn't a coach at Grayson.
